Retail-investing brand builder and media personality known as "The Blonde Broker" joins Corgi to help scale the brand's reach among everyday investors

CHICAGO, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Corgi, an AI-driven financial infrastructure company, today announced that Erin Gambrel has joined the firm as VP, Financial Services. The appointment brings a well-known voice in retail investing into Corgi's leadership team, with a focused mandate: driving growth and brand reach for Corgi's ETF lineup among retail investors, as the company continues to expand its ETF platform and broader financial services footprint.

"Bringing Erin onto the team is exactly the kind of move that compounds," said Nico Laqua, CEO of Corgi. "We've built fast on the product side, with nearly 200 ETFs and counting. What Erin brings is a decade of building financial brands designed to engage and educate retail investors. That's a different skill than marketing, and it's rare. Her audience, her credibility, and her focus on the retail side of our ETF lineup are a direct multiplier on everything else we're doing as a brand."

About Erin Gambrel

Ms. Gambrel joins Corgi from Investing Authority, an investor relations firm where she served as Vice President overseeing retail trading campaigns for a network reaching an audience of more than 20 million retail investors. Over a decade spent building financial media brands from the ground up, she has become a familiar face and voice across major financial media outlets, and is a regular contributor to The New York Times and Forbes. She is widely known as "The Blonde Broker," has founded her own marketing agency focused on the finance sector, and hosts The Market Runup, a premium financial podcast and newsletter produced under StrataMedia, covering macro trends, markets, and modern wealth creation for a retail investing audience. In her new role as VP, Financial Services, she will lead retail-focused growth strategy for Corgi's ETF lineup, drawing on ten years of experience building financial brands designed to engage and educate retail investors.

"Corgi is building at a pace I haven't seen anywhere else in this industry, and that's rare," said Gambrel. "I've spent the last decade building financial brands designed to engage and educate retail investors. That's exactly what I'm focused on here: making sure our lineup has real reach and real credibility with the everyday investor, not just with the industry. That's the biggest lever Corgi has in front of it right now."

Why This Hire Matters for the Corgi Brand

As Corgi's fund lineup has scaled rapidly, brand awareness and clear investor communication have become as important to the company's next phase of growth as product development itself. Ms. Gambrel's addition strengthens Corgi's ability to reach retail investors directly, translate complex fund strategies into accessible messaging, and build durable brand equity in a crowded and fast-moving ETF market, with a specific focus on the retail side of Corgi's ETF lineup, where a decade of brand-building experience positions her to turn product velocity into brand reach.

Major utility-scale supply agreement highlights Inox Solar Americas' U.S. manufacturing capabilities, high domestic content, PFE & supply-chain compliance, and excellent product bankability in the U.S. solar market

GREENVILLE, N.C., Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Inox Solar Americas LLC, a U.S.-based solar technology and manufacturing company specializing in advanced PV cells and high-performance PV modules, today announced that it has signed an 800-MW PV module supply agreement with a leading U.S. renewable energy developer and owner focused on developing, financing, owning, and operating utility-scale solar and energy storage projects.

Under the agreement, Inox Solar Americas will supply PV modules for two major utility-scale solar projects totaling approximately 800 MW, with individual project capacities of approximately 300 MW and 500 MW across Colorado and Georgia. PV module deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2027.

The agreement follows Inox Solar Americas' announcement last week of a separate 767-MW PV module supply agreement with another leading U.S. solar energy developer, bringing the two recently announced agreements to approximately 1.57 GW. Together, these agreements demonstrate growing customer confidence in Inox Solar Americas' U.S. manufacturing platform, technology, supply capabilities, and ability to support the evolving requirements of the U.S. utility-scale solar market.

The agreement represents a significant commercial milestone for Inox Solar Americas and demonstrates customer confidence in the company's U.S. manufacturing platform for high-domestic-content PV modules with best-in-class product quality, reliable domestic supply-chain strategy, and bankability to support the technical, commercial, and financing requirements of large-scale U.S. solar projects.

DEMONSTRATING UTILITY-SCALE BANKABILITY

The 800-MW agreement represents an important demonstration of the commercial and project-level bankability of Inox Solar Americas' PV modules. The selection of Inox Solar Americas for two large utility-scale projects reflects the technical, commercial, supply-chain, and risk considerations that developers, IPPs, investors, lenders, and other project stakeholders evaluate when selecting PV module suppliers for long-term solar assets.

The agreement demonstrates Inox Solar Americas' ability to support large-scale project pipelines through a combination of U.S. manufacturing, high domestic content, advanced PV technology, manufacturing scale, product reliability, supply-chain resilience, and long-term customer support.

SUPPORTING FEOC/PFE AND U.S. SUPPLY-CHAIN COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS

Inox Solar Americas is building its U.S. manufacturing and sourcing strategy fully complying with the evolving Prohibited Foreign Entity (PFE), Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC), domestic content, supply-chain traceability, and applicable U.S. trade and energy policy requirements.

Through enhanced supplier qualification, increased domestic sourcing, and greater supply-chain transparency and component traceability, Inox Solar Americas is working to provide PV module solutions designed to support applicable project-level compliance requirements, strengthen supply-chain resilience, and reduce risk.

"This 800-MW agreement marks an important commercial milestone for Inox Solar Americas and reflects the growing confidence U.S. renewable energy developers place in our advanced PV technology, U.S. manufacturing platform, and long-term commitment to the American solar market," said Ashok Nair, President & CEO of Inox Solar Americas. "As the industry places greater emphasis on domestic manufacturing, supply-chain transparency, regulatory compliance, product reliability, and long-term bankability, we are well positioned to deliver high-performance PV modules that meet the evolving technical and commercial requirements of large-scale solar projects across the United States."

The projects will utilize Inox Solar Americas' Vega Series™ bifacial PV modules powered by advanced Galaxion™ PV cells. Engineered for utility-scale applications, the modules deliver high power output, strong energy-yield potential, durability, and long-term reliability while supporting high levels of U.S. domestic content.

The 800-MW agreement further reinforces Inox Solar Americas' growing bankability and position as a trusted U.S. solar manufacturing partner capable of supporting large-scale utility solar projects with advanced PV technology, domestic manufacturing, resilient supply chains, and reliable long-term performance.

INOX SOLAR AMERICAS

Inox Solar Americas, founded in 2026 in the United States, is a leading solar technology and manufacturing company specializing in advanced monocrystalline PV cells and high-performance Gamma Series™ monofacial and Vega Series™ bifacial PV modules. Inox Solar Americas' photovoltaic solutions are engineered to meet the needs of residential, commercial, industrial, community solar, and utility-scale applications, delivering exceptional efficiency, reliability, and long-term value.

Inox Solar Americas acquired Boviet Solar's U.S. PV manufacturing assets in Greenville, North Carolina, USA, including 3.0 GW of annual PV module manufacturing capacity and 3.0 GW of planned annual PV cell manufacturing capacity, expected to come online in 2027.

STREATOR, Ill., Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Last week, Illinois American Water welcomed a group of the Illinois legislators to its water treatment plant in Streator, highlighting the company's industry-leading approach to water treatment and infrastructure solutions. Participating in the tour were Senator Chris Balkema, Representative Jason R. Bunting, Tim Ruestman, candidate for IL-District 105, and a delegate from the office of Representative Dennis Tipsword.

Legislators from the Streator area toured the treatment plant to learn about how Illinois American Water's ongoing investments support the delivery of safe, clean, reliable drinking water while modernizing treatment processes and protecting local water resources.

Following the tour, Illinois State Senator Chris Balkema stated, "Visiting the American Water plant in Streator gave me confidence in the critical investments being made to meet drinking water regulations across our communities and to keep quality water flowing to our taps."

"Supporting the utilities that provide the services and amenities that keep our communities going is important, especially as systems age," added Illinois Representative Jason R. Bunting. "I want to thank Illinois American Water for the opportunity to tour the Streator plant and to learn about the ways they're innovating in our community."

Recent water treatment plant upgrades that enhance the company's water quality and further protect area customers include:

- Ultraviolet Treatment System ($4.1 million): The company added additional disinfection capabilities to the water treatment process. The equipment uses ultraviolet light to treat bacteria and microorganisms that could be present in raw water from the Vermilion River, which serves as source water for the treatment plant.

- Water Plant Filter Improvement ($3.7 million): Construction completed in 2024 improved two aging water filters and created a new structure over the water plant's sedimentation and flocculation basins for additional protection from the elements.

"Illinois American Water has invested $26.5 million over the past 5 years into the Streator Water Treatment Plant and distribution system," said John Killips, Sr. Director of Engineering, Illinois American Water. "These investments are crucial for us to maintain our ability to provide clean, safe and reliable water service for the roughly 7,600 customers the plant serves."

HOUSTON, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Group 1 Automotive, Inc. (NYSE: GPI) ("Group 1" or the "Company"), a Fortune 250 automotive retailer with 249 dealerships located in the U.S. and U.K, today announced the pricing of its private placement of $625.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.250% senior unsecured notes due 2032 (the "2032 Notes") and $625.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.625% senior unsecured notes due 2035 (the "2035 Notes" and, together with the 2032 Notes, the "Notes"). The offering is expected to close on September 22, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering, together with cash on hand, to fund the purchase price for its previously announced acquisition of certain dealership assets and related real estate from Hennessy Automobile Companies, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (the "Hennessy Acquisition") and to pay related fees and expenses. Because the closing of the Hennessy Acquisition is expected to occur after the closing of the offering, the Company intends to use the net proceeds, pending the closing of the Hennessy Acquisition, to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the acquisition line under its revolving credit facility, which the Company expects to reborrow at the closing of the Hennessy Acquisition to fund a portion of the purchase price.

If the Hennessy Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to the later of (x) January 6, 2027 (the "Outside Date") and (y) such date to which the Outside Date under the purchase agreement relating to the Hennessy Acquisition may be extended in accordance with the terms thereof (such later date, the "Special Mandatory Redemption Outside Date"), or upon the occurrence of certain other events, including the termination of the purchase agreement related to the Hennessy Acquisition prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Outside Date, the Company will be required to redeem all of the 2032 Notes then outstanding at a redemption price equal to 100% of the initial issue price thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, from the issue date to, but excluding, the redemption date (the "Special Mandatory Redemption"). In that case, the Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering that are not used to fund the Special Mandatory Redemption to repay borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and thus, the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes have been offered to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in an offering exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside of the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. This announcement shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these Notes or any security, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

ABOUT GROUP 1 AUTOMOTIVE, INC.

Group 1 owns and operates 249 automotive dealerships, 310 franchises, and 32 collision centers in the United States and the United Kingdom that offer 37 brands of automobiles.

Today, Centric PLM centralizes product data and documentation, streamlines workflows and creates greater visibility across design, merchandising, technical design, sourcing and cross-functional teams.

As Boot Barn continues to grow its Exclusive Brands portfolio and expand into new product categories, Centric PLM enables faster, more informed decision-making while accelerating product development and improving operational efficiency. The platform also centralizes certification and compliance documentation, making critical product information readily accessible throughout the product lifecycle.

"Implementing Centric PLM has transformed how our teams collaborate by creating a single source of truth for product information. It has improved visibility, enabled faster, more informed decision-making and established a scalable digital foundation that enables our continued growth," says Christine Wegmann, Director, Exclusive Brands Strategy, Business Operations + Technical Design Innovation at Boot Barn.

By centralizing product data and workflows, Boot Barn created a scalable foundation that enables teams to manage increasing product complexity while maintaining speed and collaboration across teams.

"Centric Software has been a valued implementation partner throughout this journey and we look forward to continuing to build on that foundation as we evolve our digital capabilities," adds Wegmann.

"Boot Barn has built an exceptional business by combining authentic brand experiences with disciplined operational growth," says Fabrice Canonge, CEO of Centric Software. "We're proud to partner with Boot Barn as it continues to scale its Exclusive Brands business. Centric PLM creates the digital foundation to connect teams, centralize product information and drive faster, more informed product decisions."
